problem allocating memory

[kshk]

while loading a bmp file into memory, i am having problem loading the file into memory if it is too large. whats the way round?

Which OS/Compiler do you have.

I can probably guess its DOS. Only DOS is likely to have problems allocating enough memory for a bitmap.

yes DOS had some problems to allocate memory

but why are you loading all .BMP to memory??

use direct file handling & put .BMP directly to screen
it is possible, use lseek() to move ur pointer on file
n put every pixel into ur Screen

Remember Image is sets reverse order in .BMP file
so u print that Image Bottom to Top on ur Screen
